I thought the three emails were because I pay for three memberships, but I guess it was just Luke hitting the button multiple times because it didn't appear fast enough :lol:

Dude probably prints 5 copies of everything too.

As bluebo noted, it was mainly about blaming Russell, the rest is padding

I received more than 20 of the same email.
I buy memberships for family of 4 and friends and their kids.

I read each email because it was addressed to a different name, then forwarded it on.
It was so repetitive. Not just the email, but the message.

I want to hear from Football Manager. What went wrong apart from the above?
I want to hear from Vossy. What went wrong apart from the above? WTF was dropping Chinka and Kennedy all about?
What were you expecting 3 small forwards and 1 target (Harry) and Kemp to do vs 6 quality backmen?

It wasn't just a player failure.

They best hope that the new HPT get it right or they’re going to have to take accountability themselves.

There you go. I'm obviously on the outer again because I thought the email was spot on.

I had no issue with it other than getting multiple copies.
The president's job is to sell hope and say the right things, not pull the curtain back for fans to watch the fallout.

I also got 3 emails.
It almost sounded like an apology, I guess at least the club acknowledged what a terribly disappointing year it turned out to be.

Yes , I was happy to get the email . Glad he got on the front foot straight away . True Woj , we live on hope . The last thing I want to hear is head honcho giving us gloom and doom . See , Sell , Sell . That's his job . His job is to keep our spirits up and good on him . No doubt he is as pissed off as all of us behind closed doors . Never air your dirty linen in public . Doing a good job young Luke .

Agreed. I thought it was quite genuine and I actually could feel his frustration and was empathetic of ours

Yeah I thought it was OK. I didn't expect an email to make me feel any better or worse really.

When you're on a hiding to nothing there's only so much you can say.

What the crook (make no mistake he's up to his PwC eyeballs in crap) could of done is announce a review of the men's football program.

My opinion it's time - 3 years into Voss' tenure let's establish what is working and what is not. What are the areas for improvement, etc etc.

Any organisation worth its salt would be constantly reviewing their performance. Sayers and Cook wont be sitting back waiting for the stars to align for us. I liked the email. Give me that over the bullshit Melbourne approach of pissing down the supporters backs and telling them it's raining.
Trying to tell them all is just dandy when the joint is falling apart. We've got straight shooters in charge who are in a hurry for success IMHO.

There’s nothing wrong with the email.

There’s something not quite right with the match committee.

Yes BV , I reckon Sayers and Cook will be going ape droppings behind closed doors at the moment . The paint would be peeling off the walls . But when you are out in public you put on a brave face . Appearances are everything . Cook aint the type to drop his head in public .
